San Jose police and private security guards were more visible at a South Bay middle school after threats of a mass shooting on campus.

Police said the threat was not credible, but still appeared at Caroline Davis Intermediate School in force.

"We do have officers on campus before, during and after school," San Jose Police Officer Gina Tepoorten said. "We want to ensure that each student going to school today feels safe, as well as staff. And we want parents to have confidence."

The security spike came after a fight last week where one student allegedly threatened to bring a gun to campus on Friday.
